Subject: [freetds] FreeTDS and DBD:Sybase


Hello, I installed FreeTDS about 12 months ago on my RH Linux 7.2 machine.
I've compiled it with DBD:Sybase in order to access Microsoft SQL Server 7.0
and 2000.

1) How do I determine what version I have installed?

For DBD::Sybase, perl -e 'use DBD::Sybase; print $DBD::Sybase::Version,
"\n";'
For Freetds, find include/tdsver.h in your freetds installation, grep
TDS_VERSION_NO tdsver.h    

2) How can I upgrade my version to the latest without re-installing
everything from scratch?  I would assume I could simply recompile TDS and
link in my copy of DBD:Sybase?  Or should I download the latest Sybase?
How do I un-install Sybase?

You have to install freetds and dbd/sybase from scatch as dbd/sybase deponds
on freetds lib.
Don't need to uninstall dbd/sybase, installing new version will overwrite
old one.

Thanks

...david
